This is such an amazing cosplay image I love it. This image captures the essence of Harley Quinn while also having a sense of mystery and intrigue. Love how the pink for Harley's coat stands out to draw attention to the image and the shadows play across her, and while the smoke or fog hide the background, without interfering with Harley. Well Done, this is an absolutely amazing shot.

This is a very fun image, although also slightly creepy, which works since it's apparently for Halloween. I love how the fog encompasses her, and she seems to be fading into view, her limbs, edges and even skin tone seeming to materialize from out of the fog all while her hair, dress, eyes and bucket stand out from the fog. Well done.

Love how the blue of the eyes just jumps out of the image, such a gorgeous color, and a great choice for the selective color. The shadows and smoke add in a sense of mystery to the image that draws the viewer in and really makes them take notice. This is such an all around gorgeous image. I absolutely love it. Great job.

This image is so mysterious and magical, it really fits the title you gave it, and makes you wonder what magical concoction is being brewed up and for what purpose by this alchemist. The smoke around the bottles and paraphernalia is amazing and all of the items add to the image and fit it so well. Amazing job.

This image makes great use of the fog or smoke to enhance a very creepy evil vibe. It really has a very IT or Children of the Corn feel to it. The use of monotone also greatly enhances the creepiness of the image, and makes anyone who watches horror movies want to nope right out. Amazing shot, and I love it.

I want to see your best portrait photos using smoke bombs or powder such as flour, coloured Holi powder or chalk. Powder and smoke shoots can be a lot of fun especially with dancers or gymnasts, so try to capture a wonderful sense of motion in your photos.
